Good afternoon Prezzy Peeps and a Happy Friday to you all!
The clocks go back on Sunday and with it comes the countdown to Christmas! I hope you’re getting yourself ready.
But let’s not get ahead of ourselves just yet, there are a couple more celebrations to be had before the winter months. Halloween’s coming up next week and if you haven’t entered our competition already, go ahead and do it now!
There’s also Divali coming up quite soon, and for those Jewish folk among us, there’s Hanukah. We’d love to know what you’re celebrating and how you’re celebrating it!
Now, as a lot of you will know, there is a nationwide postal strike going on. Let us re-assure you now that the strike shouldn’t affect most of the orders made at Prezzybox.
If you want to find out more information about what we’re doing to make sure you get your gifts on time this year, and if you’ll be affected, click on the button below.
We’re committed to making your holidays fantastic, and we’d love to hear about your celebrations! Send us a comment and let us know what you’re up to.
Lastly, as its Friday, here’s a video to put a smile on your face. It’s the latest offering from Improv Everywhere, enjoy…

Greetings PrezzyPeeps!
Today, we have been playing with Sun Jars. If you don’t know what Sun Jars are, they’re little jars that store sunlight. a small solar panel in the lid collects solar energy and when it gets dark, the energy powers some little LEDs inside the jar making it glow like bottled sunshine. We’ve got 3 colours, the Yellow Sun Jar, Blue Sun Jar and the new fabulous Pink Sun Jar. they’re all really popular and make great eco gifts and garden lighting. (They’re waterproof too!)
Anyway, we all love the Sun Jar and we’ve been playing with some today.

Wow, it’s been a little while since our last Happy Friday.
 Sorry about that, but I promise we’ve been busy getting some new and exciting products ready for the site.
So, what have we been up to this week?
After our very succesful Mother’s Day Competition, we’ve been gearing up for Easter next week! check out some of our cool easter products for a healthier alternative to the usual chocolate.
We’ve also launched our brand new site, Prezzybox.TV! Take a look at our new video blog and meet EJ, our official Prezzybox presenter. She’ll be giving all of you an exclusive insight into the world of Prezzybox from new products and promotions to interviews with the staff and other fun stuff. we’ll have more videos coming every week, so check it out!
Anyway, you know what Friday means, Videos! This week, it’s one that has been around for a little while, but it’s still funny and cute.

Hey Everyone!
 What a week it’s been at Prezzybox HQ. We’ve been busy bringing you some more fantastic gifts as well as a brand new range of barbeques and garden accesories for the summer that we hear is just around the corner.
Last week we showed you some of our cakes for Red Nose Day. We raised about £50, which isn’t bad for a little company like us!
 As you know, it’s Mother’s Day on Sunday! I hope you’ve got your gifts sorted so you can show her just how much you care. As you also know, we’ve been running a competition, looking for the ‘Prezzybox Mum of the Year 2009′ We’ve had so many entries and it’s been great reading through them. Each and every mum is one in a million, but we’ve chosen our winner this year and you can see the entry here
As it’s Friday, it’s movie time. I came across this one while writing my Gadget News this week, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Hooray! The weekend starts here, are you up to anything fun this weekend? We’ve been busy this week reading through all your Mum of the Year entries, we’ve had some great ones, and there’s still time to enter your mum if you think she’s the best mum in the world! Click here to see our highly recommended Mother’s Day gifts and fun pages where you can enter your mum.
We’ve also been adding our new Redfoot fold-up shoe range and a rather curious Beeping Egg. We’ve also raised some money for Red Nose Day.

Hello!
The entries have already started rolling in for our Mum of the Year competition, we love reading through them all and getting to know your amazing mums.
We’ve now launched our complete Mother’s Day fun page, so if you want to get your mum a gift to show you care but can’t think of what to get, don’t just reach for the phone and order some flowers, choose something that will last, and that she will really appreciate from our Mother’s Day gift selection.
If you’re really stuck for a gift idea, the Prezzybox boffins have developed the Mother’s Day Sketch Test. Delve deep into your inner psyche and discover what you love the most about your mum.
We’ve taken the hard work out of finding a gift for your mum, so there really are no excuses now!
Enter your mum for mum of the year, take the sketch test, find the perfect gift and more HERE

Well, I said on Friday that I’d show you our new Mother’s day competition, and here it is! We’re going to award the UK’s best mum the ‘Prezzybox Best Mum award!’
So click on the link and tell us why your mum is the best in the UK. Attach a photo, could be your mum on her own, you with your mum or a family shot.
We’ll look through all the entries and select the mum who deserves to win this prestigeous award.
But it’s not just an award, oh no. The winning mum will win a hamper stuffed full of prizes including some family passes for National Heritage days out and front row tickets to the filming of the Alan Titchmarsh show! Very exciting indeed!
Speaking of Mother’s Day, we’re about to launch another fantastic competition. This one will be massive, I’ll tell you about it on Monday!Â
Below this post you can see our lucky winners from our Valentine’s Day Poetry competition. Congratulations to them all!
As it’s Friday, here’s a video to make you smile.
For those familiar with lolcats, you’ll love this. basically it’s a little girl who creates her own lolcats from her kitten book. It’s quite cute, and funny.

It’s that time of the week again, Friday is here! What are you all getting up to at the weekend?
We’ve been very busy this week at Prezzybox HQ. We picked our Poetry Competition winners and as soon as we have confirmation from all of them, I’ll be posting their winning poems for the world to see! We’re still waiting to hear back from one of our lucky winners, so check your inboxes, it could be you!
We’ve got some more cool stuff lined up, I can’t wait to show you all what we’ve been working on. We’ve also been selecting our new products so lots of new things coming to the site very soon indeed!
As it’s Friday, i’d like to give you a video to cheer you up. This week I’m going to show you the Miley Cyrus performance from this week’s Saturday Night Takeaway. She looked and sounded amazing, but forgot her lines. Even so, I think she recovered brilliantly and got on with it!

As most of you know, we take a moment every wedesday to ask the staff at Prezzybox HQ a little question so that you can get to know us all a little better. This week I found out what type of mobile phones everyone had.
To see the results, follow our Twitter feed @Prezzybox!
We’ve had the Momiji people in to visit today, they showed us all the new dolls and we can’t wait to show them to you. Our buyers are in a meeting as we speak trying to decide what we’re going to be putting on the site for you. Keep your eye on the New tab on our site to find out what we choose.
